I always wanted to learn statistics from scratch, but I never had a good university teacher. Here I found a good teacher and also the opportunity to learn whenever I want ( and skipping parts I knew!)

After trying several courses to get me started with R programming, this one came to the rescue and had all the info I wanted. It also provides a great way to practice through labs and a final project!

I believe the statistics content is very good, but the R content is very poor, and in the labs where R is used, the explanation is just a text file; there is no person explaining while you are doing the lab

The course is very basic, so it is good for an introduction. Quizzes are simple but the final project takes a lot of time. Why should we have to answer three research questions? Two would be sufficient.

Kind of ridiclous I cannot complete the class without getting my final project graded by another peer when this is a "work at your own pace" class and most discussion posts are at least 3 months old.

Could be improved by providing better tutorials to use R, provide guidelines to use Rstudio desktop as Rstudio Cloud is quite slow and crashes (it crashed 100s of times on loading brfssdata).

well thought out and delivered course, but I would have preferred that it dig in more into the topics. Not necessarily more topics, but deeper treatment of the topics that were covered

El temario es muy interesante, falta contenido que acompañe: hay varios saltos donde pasas de la introducción del tema a cuestiones complejas del mismo sin explicaciones en el medio.

It's more about explaining statistics than R programmng. Both are intertwined but the course could do with more programming sections and better explanations about how you do things.

Some parts of the course are given too superficially. R is required, but the instruction given is not at the level of the required project even though it is a class for beginners.

Good review of stats but I wish more time would have been spent on R and videos on R. Less videos on stats. This is more of a stats class and less about R.

video lectures were good but the final project at the end was too loosely structured, and depended on you to go learn many features of ggplot on your own

Nice, but missing a lot of features for those who selected Audit Track. Due to missing excercises, the course without quizes is of very limited value.

Final Lab project demands far more knowledge of R tool that was taught during the course, it will be really difficult for me to comply with it.

I expected more programming with R and less theory. Mainly because I already knew the theory and just wanted to learn how to apply this in R.

The course is manageable apart from the final project which is significantly harder compared to the earlier assignments.

Nice course.
But the week 5 project is a little vague. It would be beter if we had a lab assignment instead.

I found using Datacamp for assignment is confusing. Instruction is not very clear

Interesting course but I had a lot of difficulty with the final project.

A good introduction to some basic stats, a mediocre introduction to R

The final project should have an instructional video.

stats instruction is good but the R part is weak

I felt like I didn't have enough skills in R.
